start with a wood base.
and a wood dowel
and a "L" angle bracket of sufficient size to hold the can at the top.
-----
attach dowel to base
put cake on base over dowel
add bracket at top to hold can and bend to a pleasing pouring angle.
add can.
fancy it all up --
> deco the cake
> hide the dowel under icing or poured sugar (looks very real) |

When I did this cake (in my photos), I stacked and doweled my cakes with with a dowel down the center (I left this dowel taller than the cakes). I used 4 - 6" cakes. Wrapped in fondant. My husband sacrificed himself and drank the beer. I covered the dowel extending above the cake in fondant and then used a fondant tool the carv in marks that looked like pouring beer. I then put hot glue on the end of the dowl and inserted it into the can opening. It looks like the beer is pouring from the can. HTH |
